SUGAR-JAR HOLDER FOR KITCHEN-CABINETS.

Specification of Letters lfatent.

Patented Oct. 31, 1916.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, DARRELL FRANK DYKE, a citizen of the United States,and resident of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois,have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Sugar-Jar Holdersfor Kitchen-Cabinets, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to an improved holder intended, primarily, forsupporting the sugar-containers or jars in kitchen-cabinets, although,as will hereinafter appear, the device is capable of use for otherpurposes, and is therefore not to be understood as being limited in itsapplication to that herein shown and described.

The objects of the invention are to produce from sheet-metal and by theart of stamping and bending, a cheap, durable bracket or support,designed to be applied to the partition-board of a kitchen-cabinet, orother wall-like support and adapted to support in a convenient mannerand so as to be swung into and out of such cabinet the sugar containeror jar usually employed in connection therewith.

Other objects and advantages of the illvention will hereinafter appearand the novel features thereof. will be particularly pointed out in theclaims.

Referring to the drawing: Figure 1 is a side elevation of my device;Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view of the same; Fig. 3 isa front elevation of the same; Fig. 4 is a top plan view, the devicebeing shown by dotted lines in a swung out position, and also as appliedto a partition or wall-support; and Fig. 5 is a deta1l in plan of a partof the blank employed showing the same before being bent or folded.

Similar numerals of reference indicate similar parts in all the figuresof the draw- .lhe device comprises an attaching-plate 5, intended to besecured in position to a partition or other wall 10, by means ofordinary screws, and therefore stationary, and a swinging-member 15,pivoted to the attaching-plate in a manner now to be described.

The attaching-plate 5, is provided between its ends with punched outscrew-receiving holes 6, and beyond the same has its upper and lowerends laterally bent to form parallel ears 7.

The swinging-member 15, the blank from which the same is formed beingillustrated in Fig. 5, comprises an upper horizontal branch 16, and aninclined bracing-branch 17. These branches 16 and 17 terminaterespectively in ears 18 and 19 which overlap, respectively, the ears 7of the stationary member and are pivoted thereto by means of rivets 20,where by the member 15 is capable of freely swinging.

At a point between its ends the blank from which the member 15 isproduced, is bent, as at 21, so as to receive and embrace ajar-supporting ring 25. This ring, it will be understood, may be of anyshape desired and best adapted to support the container or jar. In thepresent instance, being intended to re cone and support the usualcylindrical sugarar employed in connection with kitchencabinets, saidring is circular.

At one side of the bend 21, the blank is provided with rectangularextensions 22, and at the opposite side of said bend 21, the blank isprovided with triangular extensions 23, there being produced betweenthese two sets of extensions, 22 and 23, intermediate curved recesses24:. When the blank is bent, as at 21, it embraces, at its bent portion,the ring 25. This ring is formed from a suitable length of heavy gagewire and the terminals 26 thereof, extend rearwardly under the up perhorizontal portion or branch 16 of the swinging-member, These rminals 26are clamped in position by means of the extensions 22 of the blank,which, as will be seen, are downwardly and inwardly bent to embrace saidterminals. Likewise, also, are the triangular extensions 23 of theblank, bent at an angle to the main portion thereof, so that the edgestake under and lend additional support to the ring 25. In this manner itwill be seen that the most effective and rigid connection is establishedbetween the swinging-member and the supportingring.

It will be apparent that by the employment of the described device thereis pro vided an eiiicient bracket, particularly adapted for the supportof a ring for holding the sugar jars usually present in kitchencabinets,whereby said jars may be swung into and out of the cabinet for thepurpose of storing them or giving access to their contents.

Having described my invention, what-I claim, 1s:

1. The hereindescribed bracket, the same comprising a stationary memberhaving an attaching-plate provided with bearings, an angular swingingmember having terminals movably pivoted to said bearings, and a jarsupport located in and embraced by the angle of said swinging memher andclamped in position by the metal thereof bent thereabout.

2. The hereindescribed bra'clz'et, the samecomprising a stationarymember having an attaching-plate provided with opposite bearings, anangular swin'ging'member having terminals movably' pivoted to saidbearings, and a jar support located in and em braced by the angle ofsaid swingingmem' her and at each side of the angle clamped in positionby the metal of said member.

3. The hereindescribed bracket; the same comprising a stationary memberhaving "an attaching-plate provided with opposite bearings, an angularswinging member'having terminals movably pivoted to said bear ings, anda jar support located inand embraced by the angle of said swingingmemher and havingits terminals extending rearopposite wardly. under thehorizontal portion of and embraced bythe metal of said swinging.

member.

l. The hereindescribed bracket, the same comprising a stationary memberformed with an attaching-plate having upper and lower laterally bentends forming ears; an angular swinging member terminating in earspivoted" to the" ears of the attachingplate and between the same at oneside of r its bend having 1atera1 extensions and at the supported" bythe bent triangular extensions thereof. 7 p Intestimony whereof I havesigned my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribin-gwitnesses; p r
